T-stat won't hurt (mine added ~ 1 mpg)

but 16 is way off - totally stock mine was 23 intown
with lift/ARB/MT's - it dropped to 20.

the dragging calipers have been on all Liberties - not just CRD - as have worn front bearings
have you checked tire alignment?



Wow, and I agree with this too. I just had to rebuild the rear brake calipers, and as I stated in another post, I have now replaced both of my front bearings in the past three months.

I unknowingly bought mine with a bad 'stat. While I was freezing my @ss off with the temp gauge at 1/4 I wasn't concerned about mpg.

Looking back I'd be more concerned about sludge build-up than mpg.
